Playseum

For St Patrick's Day we took Leah (and Dallin) to the Playseum, a place set up like a mini city, with different rooms for different activities: music, the Dr's office, construction, the fire station, the grocery store, the hair salon, and the pet shop, to name a few.  Each room is set up to allow parents to let the kids loose and explore, and Leah loved it.  It was here we learned Leah has a particular love for cars - she wanted to be inside anything she could drive and she didn't want to get out! 
We started out with story time

and then moved right on into driving!
 
 
While Leah took her first driving lesson, Dallin beat away on the drum!

Who wouldn't love that face?

Another car!

Well, whatta ya know?!  Another car!

To Dave's disappointment, his daughter did not seem to take to playing with dirt as he might have hoped.  This activity was very short-lived.

Weighing Dallin in the pretend grocery store.

Fishing.  I'm surprised we even got a picture of this one, because the time it would take to capture a photo is about how long Leah spent doing this. Patience is not her strongest quality.

She loves jumping...though I think this trampoline disappointed her.  I've taken her to an open gym a couple times recently where they have a big trampoline and she LOVES it.  This one didn't quite measure up.

And finally, music!  

She played the violin like it was a guitar.

It took some time for her to get this mini organ to work, and I think the noise scared her once it did.

A computer!  Always a favorite...though the screen on this computer is a fake one plastered over the screen and Leah kept trying to take it off to see the real screen.  

We ended the morning with snack time.  We were all exhausted by the time we got home, but it was a morning well spent.
